Just wondering, what would the names be of Baden, Rhenish Palatinate, Lower Rhine, Nassau, Darmstadt and Julich-Cleve-Berg, Francophied?

What I can contribute is "(la) Rhénanie-Palatinat".
And "(le Pays de) Bade".

And I would put my money on "(le) Bas-Rhin" for Lower Rhine, but I am not sure.

Baden: Le pays de Bade
Rhineland Palatinate: le Land de Rhénanie-Palatinat
Nassau: le Duché de Nassau
Lower Rhine: le Bas-Rhin
Darmstadt: Darmstadt
Jülich-Cleves-Berg: La Province de Juliers-Clèves-Berg

Does that help?

@Highlander:
I take it you are aware of the fact that entities with the names "Rhineland-Palatinate" and "Jülich-Cleve-Berg" never have existed at the same time?

(Or possibly for some months in 1947.)
